We are pleased to announce the Candidates Series Staunton chess set exquisitely made from bud rosewood and natural boxwood. The King proudly stands at 4.1 inches and its base is robust 1.7 inches. This is a captivated design featuring the magnificently robust and remarkable knight.

Dark chess pieces are exquisitely crafted in bud rosewood. Because of its rarity, bud rosewood chess pieces are the primary choice of many chess enthusiasts. Bud rosewood is an alluring wood and probably the most admired wood for luxury chess sets.

The opposing pieces are made of boxwood which is traditionally used for white side. It is one of the fairly easy woods to work with and shows off aesthetic detail. The set comes with free extra queens for effortless pawn promotion. All chess pieces are expertly carved and weighted for fantastic hand-feel and a very nice thud on the wooden chess board. All Pieces are uniquely designed and have thick green felts, which precisely envelops the base of each chessmen for smooth movement on the chess board. The knights are well-crafted and represent the highest grade of knight carving skills that our Indian artisans have to offer.

Craftsmanship:The carving and the design of the knight are quite spectacular, look closely at the eyes, nostrils, pinned ears, and craftsmanship around the mane. The design of the other pieces is also highly outstanding. They are meticulously handcrafted from the finest grade bud rosewood and polished by hand to give it a rich and long-lasting shine. Superb size proportioning from king to the pawn exhibits trueintricate craftsmanship in all the pieces. The design, quality, and craftsmanship of these chess pieces are comparable to the luxury chess sets that are sold for $800+ by other retailers.

Uniformity of pieces: The shapes of turned pieces are guided by metal profiles and so all turned pieces are identical, especially the pawns. You can expect some variation where hand carving or cutting comes i.e. knights.

All chess pieces have an elegant visual appeal that blends well for permanent display on a cocktail table or any contemporary home. Matching chess board for these pieces is available at our web store at extra cost. Shop Here

An outstanding and value for money set. I'm blown away by the quality of the knight at this price point. It's a pleasure to play with this set and when I took this set to my club, I got a lot of appreciation from my pals there. Even the IM who was there in the club did come to me to appreciate this set. He played a game with me which I lost in 10 minutes. Congrats chess bazaar for this wonderful chess set. (Posted on 5/11/2018)
